What is unique about Table V - Practice?

Table V - Practice is designed to be more challenging than Table VI - Qualification, which serves as a benchmark for evaluating a shooter’s proficiency. The intention behind this increased difficulty is to help shooters refine their skills and build confidence before undergoing qualification processes. By presenting a higher level of challenge, Table V encourages shooters to confront a variety of scenarios and improve their performance under simulated stressors, ultimately enhancing their overall competence.

Focusing solely on speed rather than accuracy would negate the goal of comprehensive skill enhancement, as both elements are crucial in real-world scenarios. The use of only scaled targets limits training effectiveness since various target sizes and types are essential for a well-rounded practice experience. Additionally, employing only theoretical scenarios fails to translate into practical application, undermining the necessity for hands-on experience in diverse conditions. Therefore, having Table V be harder than the qualification table is vital for maximum skill advancement.
